My head hurts.
Okay
Let's... here's a recap of my day.
I am sleeping. You know when you're asleep but like semi-conscious? Well I wake up a few times and Ena is barking and so finally I wake up completely, and I realize that I'm not dreaming or anything, that she's barking because the door is closed and she wants to get out of my room. Huh. Meanwhile, Sebastian is sitting right there in his fucking bed with his fucking computer. What a fucking idiot. I wake up and let her out and then I sit down in bed and look at my phone. It's blinking, so I open it up and see what's going on. It says I need to clear room in my inbox for an incoming text message. I clear out some room and then I get four messages from Marion. They read something like this:
message 1: Gabe! Gabe! this morning I wake up and I'm talking to my parents and they told me they were going to Caviar and Bananas for lunch and they asked me if you wou-
message 2: ld want to go. I didn't even have to ask them! so uh. if you want to come we're eating at 12:00
message 3: by the way to get there, take the xtown bus and then take the 6 and get out at 23rd and lexington, okay?
message 4: oh and by the way. if you get this at like, 11:30, don't even bother.
So I freak out for a second because I have no reference of time WHATSOEVER so I text her like, omg what time is it. It was 10:30, so I took a shower and left. three trains later, (C, 1, N) I get out at like... 23rd and whatever, and I walk over to lexington and she calls me and she's like, "Gabe I can see you. turn around." and it turns out the place is on 22nd and Madison so... her parents' friends are there, and we're there and we all sit down and order drinks, and it's this.. brazilian restaurant, and I've never been there before or nothing, and I don't know what ANYTHING on the menu is, so they just get me the same drink everyone is having and like it comes and I taste it and it's fucking delicious because it's like 90% alcohol with sugar and lime and like, that's it, and it's.. I mean. I weigh like 130, and I'm a small guy, and like two of these would've had me dancing on the table. I was way buzzed after just one. So Marion and I are laughing at everything, haha, and like. the food comes, and there are banana chips with tapioca, or 'caviar', unquote, thus caviar and bananas, and it's delicious, and then like... some other shit that I don't know the name for comes and it's delicious too, and everything is sooo fucking goooooddd and it was beautiful... it was beautiful...
so then we leave and I call my mom and she's like, be home by five, and I'm like, yeah right. so I waltz around the city with Marion's family shopping and talking and we go to that big market they have in union square and we go to this SOAPERY, I don't know the official word, but they sell soaps and lotions and cosmetic products and shit, only... it's the BEST shit in the world. like. that I've ever seen. I got this sample of their body scrub and my hands still smell beautiful and we all got samples and our hands are all super fucking smooth, so I ended up spending fifty three dollars for my mom's birthday on... stuff.
all in all today kicked ass. it's weird to think that I woke up without any plans.
